Pinball Fantasy Show/Museum

#1

As a lifelong pinball junkie, this goes on my must-see list too.
Before misspending my adulthood on gambling, my youth was misspent on Bally, Williams, Stern, et al.

In younger days I had three games in the living room -- Twin Win, Monte Carlo, and Elektra.

I actually attended the PBF in 1990 in Scottsdale AZ.
Local news interviewed me. And the groupies . . . .

If nothing's changed in sixteen years, you can expect to find many long-lost favorites to play free, in excellent shape, including very rare ones.
Of course, you can always truck a couple three home, if your living room allows.

I stopped by there. The overwhelming bulk of them are Gottlieb, great
for their day but no comparison (in my opinion) to the heyday of
Williams in the late 80's and 90's. They did have Adams Family, Fun
House, T-2, Star Trek TNG and Twilight Zone. Obviously there are
many, many wonderful machines they don't have.

It was nice returning to my college days but those machines are
neither challenging nor fun anymore.
